I absolutely LOVE Britain/England with a severe passion. I'm so proud of what this tiny nation has achieved. Have you seen the many thousands of proud, flag-waving, people who come together on special occasions? I am also a devout royalist. I could be here all day talking about this but my tea and crumpets are getting cold. - Britgirl

Yes we are. Every single household has something with the British flag on it.

Just because we don't yell UK UK UK! like Americans yell USA USA USA! Does not mean we are not patriotic.

12London Buses and Cabs Are Unique

I see hundreds of tourists in London rushing up to buses and saying to them selves, "Wow, it's a London bus! " It's like any other bus, as they soon find out. Duh. - PositronWildhawk

Are they?

16Northern England is Grim

Not at all. Some of the most beautiful places are in the north. It may not be as 'rich' as the south but this doesn't stop the people being the friendliest in the whole of England. You can sit next to a stranger on the bus, get talking and by the end of the journey, you've swapped names and number and you find yourself being invited 'for a brew'. So no, the north of England is not 'grim' at all. - Britgirl

17We Say 'Bloody' All the Time

No we bloody don't! This is so bloody untrue. Who bloody told you this? Well take it from me, they're bloody wrong. BLOODY CHEEK! - Britgirl

18We All Have "Keep Calm and Carry On" Posters

Ha! Who put this? I hold my hand up to being the typical Brit (minus the 'bad teeth') without shame. I have this as a fridge magnet and as poster on my bedroom wall. It makes me smile. Every time I look at it. - Britgirl
